Configuring an iTX Desktop to accept commands from a keyboard or hard panel
Macro mapping
An iTX Desktop macro belongs to one of two categories:
• A global macro works on all layouts in an iTX Desktop view.
• An edit-mode macro works when the selected layout is in the editing mode.
By mapping a macro to a keyboard-shortcut or hard-panel control, you enable it to be run from
the keyboard or hard-panel.
